This is somewhat crude but I have heard the lower back tattoo is a signal that the woman is open to having anal sex (ew)!

I’m sure it is just some guy’s wishful thinking.

Nooo, CC - don’t get that lower back Tattoo! It’s sooooooooo played out!

When I see a women under 35 bend over in her low riding jeans and she DOESN’T have a tattoo on her lower back, I’m shocked.

You can always get a messenger bag and iron press Pogo onto the front of it, that way you can have Pogo with you always, but not permanently.

I'm with you, PB. I've seen some beautiful tats, that are artwork on a person's body representing their most strongly held beliefs - but not a whole lot of people have these. Most have tweety bird (why? why????), a butterfly, a random kanji symbol, their name, etc.

On the bright side, tattoos are great for identifying corpses!

CC, will you LOVE Pogo when you’re 80? Will you TOTALLY WANT Pogo there all your lower back’s life long? I maketh a stern face at thou.

for those in the tri-state area, I’ve heard of those tacky lower back tatoos called “jersey plates.”

On the other hand -
the female half of a clergy couple I know just had a peace sign tattoo put on her shoulder. She says she did it out of exasperation with our current prez, and as a reminder of an enduring Christian value: peace. She’s 50.
I think that might be OK.
How about no tattoos before you are old enough - 50?

One thing to consider:

If you ever think you might have children, please don’t think about putting a tatto near the involved areas (for many of us this leaves only the forehead and the bottom of the feet). Let’s just say that skin expands, and doesn’t go back completely.

I’m glad I withstood that temptation, to get a tattoo in my twenties, because now (just to name one example of a friend) tweety bird would be approaching big bird’s size.

PeaceBang the tattoo that you are talking about is known either as the “Lame Stain” or the “Tramp Stamp.”

What about Pogo?

I've had this dream of getting a Pogo tattoo for a while. I've got one image of him where he's sitting on a log, clearly thinking about something.

Similar to this, but not so sad looking...
